Safe on PublicSurplus auction

Forgot how to dial the combination on that old safe? Think you got the right numbers but the handle is stuck? What safe should you buy? Ask your safe questions here!

A nice locked HHM safe for any member in that particular area. The lock is an S&G 6730 mounted RH.

Those style hinges usually mean its a b or c rated fire safe right? That handle looks like its already thrown, but theyre saying its locked and combo unknown.. nice find, maybe one of our Arizona members will buy it!

It would not be worth driving that far, mseifert. The lock is worth as much as the safe, and you'd use more fuel value than the safe is worth just getting to the Texas border, let alone across half of New Mexico and almost all the way across Arizona.

He's further away than I am, Bitbuster. And if I were to come home with another safe, even one as cheaply priced as this one, I'd end up in the doghouse for quite a while. :cry:

It is also not worth driving over there to get it for fuel costs/time. It is 235 miles (378 kilometers), almost 3 1/2 hours driving time... each way! So am I bidding? Not exactly. :P :lol:

Now if it were a Diebold Bank Safe for that price, I'd risk the doghouse. :twisted:
